I do believe Nitro-Tech is a little bit better than most other whey proteins.

If money was no concern and I could take any whey protein, I would probably choose Nitro-Tech.

BUT.... as far as value is concerned, its tough to beat Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey..... and that's what I would recomend.

DudeXCH,

I just notice something about Nitro-Tech. They don't advertise it or put it in front of the label, but Nitro-Tech contains Creatine. That's why probably when you take it you get better results. Most of my friends that have taken Nitro-Tech tell me that they feel fuller compare to other type of whey proteins.

You're right Fitness. It does and it doesn't list it in the nutrition label part, but in the ingredients where MOST people don't read because, really, you usually can't understand what most of the stuff is anyway .

yes, i know Nitro-Tech contains creatine, but for some reason, the label doesn't say how much creatine it contains.

It also contains l-glutamine and glutamine peptides and other assorted goodies.

Does anyone know how much creatine is in one serving of Nitro-Tech?

OK.... so what exactly does protein powder do for you. if i eat a normal amound of real protein a day should i still talk it. i'm a far vegetarian, so i only eat turkey, chicken and poultry. so basically not red meat. am i ok or should i try protein powder? let me know.

I would suggest you take protein powder, at least post-workout.

I would suggest Pre-workout protein intake. There is some research showing that more anabolic response is experienced if you consume protein (especially EAA) preworkout than post workout.


On this note, has anyone tried Vendetta from Xtreme formulations? I am hearing tons of great feedback, but I cant afford it just yet. Until then, I just take a quick digesting protein before workouts.

Shipping is just too much for me. Great deals but the shipping charges kill it for me.

No. 100% whey protein. (Well, the one people talk most about. Optimum MIGHT make a MRP, but I don't know about that.)
